Description
Sodium Picosulfate is a stimulant laxative that works by stimulating the smooth muscles of the intestines to enhance peristalsis and inhibit the absorption of water and electrolytes in the bowel. This action helps to soften the stool and facilitate its passage. It is commonly used for treating constipation, aiding bowel movements after surgery, and preparing the bowel for procedures such as colonoscopy or X-ray examinations.
